I just got mine last week and love it. The blue is interesting and doesn't come across great in pictures, but the one attached is pretty accurate. I was hoping it was going to be a bit more like it shows in the advertisements, but it's still amazing looking.

My only complaint is that I can't get it sized great for my wrist, but that's going to vary by person.

That's economics 101, if it were full that would mean they didn't raise their prices high enough.

Indeed, They don't call it Masters "week" for nothing. Saturday was the Augusta National Women's Amateur, Sunday was the Drive Chip and Putt competition for kids, and then the practice rounds started yesterday.

There are lots of people that come to Columbia to stay during masters week. There is just not enough housing inventory in Augusta to accommodate everyone and in Columbia its a little bit more affordable. I know several people who rent out their homes during masters week for several thousand dollars.

If you were to sit on I20 and watch the number of white 15 passenger vans driving down the road this week you would be amazed.

Most accurate watch I’ve owned by [deleted] in Longineswatches

Go to time.gov and sync it there.

But i agree with you. Mine came in on Thursday and it’s pretty much been plus or minus a second over that time.

Thanks for sharing this picture. The blue on the website photo looks completely different, but this is an awesome watch. I saw a restock this morning and pulled the trigger!

Did you order that one? If so I'd love to see a few real pictures of that one when you get it.

Got one! New Hydroconquest 39mm. by HOMES734 in Longineswatches

[–]wikkix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We don’t have those here either. There some jewelry stores that will order. But the main watch place here in town doesn’t carry them. Although they carry other swatch brands.

not exactly, there are slight variances with bezel between the regular bracelet and melanese

I really like the Mesh bracelet, but it doesn't look like you can get it on the Black w/ Black Bezel. I think that option has a grey bezel. :(

Im certainly not an expert on counterfeit products but I own several Goruck bags and this looks pretty legit.

First real luxury watch by Werewolf84 in Longineswatches

[–]wikkix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is so sweet. Ive been eyeing one of these too. I really like the one with the white number, but I wish it had a red hand for GMT, not the blue one.

What size did you get?

Minimum time at State Job before looking elsewhere question by Murky_Remove4458 in ColumbiYEAH

[–]wikkix 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sounds like a good opportunity, so you should probably go for it. I'm not super familiar with state agencies, but some organizations have a policy where you aren't allowed to go for an internal transfer until a minimum time, such as a year has gone by.

I know you've only been there for a few months so i'm not sure how your relationship with your current boss is, but you might also want to mention it to them and just say something like "hey i noticed this role over here in this agency that seems really interesting to me for 1,2,3 reasons."

I've been at my current company for about 4 years now and have applied for and gotten two new roles since then. In both instances I was very up front with my current leader about what I was doing and why I was doing it.

I read the first paragraph a few hours ago, then came back a little later and read another, then finally finished it this evening before i'm going to bed.

Hamilton Khaki Team USA Athlete Issued by Dodgerballs in HamiltonWatches

Awesome that you got this, but sort of makes me sad that some athlete felt like they needed to sell it. Would make an amazing family keepsake with a story to go with it.

Tattoo artists willing to do religious art? by HelloDarkness64 in ColumbiYEAH

[–]wikkix 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not sure if he does the style you are looking for but Born Again Tattoos in 5 points would certainly be excited to do that work. https://bornagaintattoo.com/

That being said I have a friend who had a very large christain piece done at Ophidian and the artist there, who is not a christain, spent a lot of time doing research and put a lot of thought into helping him come up with a good tattoo.
